Hi People!
Nice to hear from you again!!
$2.59 per gallon in San Juan, PR AND climbing EVERY 3 days...
Expected to be around $3.49 on Thanksgiving...
I am SERIOUSLY thinking to do a conversion to run on propane fuel.
Is there any thread on this subject?
Perhaps one could be started.
Any opinions will be appreciated!
Thanx!

WTF does GW have to do with the price of oil? If you want to blame somebody, try blaming Exon. Last year, they had $23,000,000,000.00 dollars in profit. This year, they are expected to make $33,000,000,000.00..... all from screwing us. The U.S. has not built an oil refinery in @30 years.

Fueled up today at $2.39/gallon for 87 in Anchorage. Seems the price dropped by a nickle in the last few days. Weekend pricing? I'm not sure.

I Recently Heard Here In Southern Louisiana That Prices Are Expected To Be $3.84/gal By Thanksgiving. This Sucks.

i think the high prices are great. I guess that's easy to say when you live in a province with the second largest oil reserves in the world. You guys in the US really have nothing to complain about. You have very little of your own oil but yet you have the lowest gas prices in the world. Only in America!!!

I love my f150 but I'll never buy another truck. I think I'll just keep it as a spare vehicle and buy a VW TDI or something.

Yea, Bush does have a part in our gas prices being a little higher and it's because he won't sit back and apease a bunch of arab bastards and/or anybody else in the world that wants to try and jerk us around and try to control us by jacking up the prices on our resources. I say we just stop paying OPEC nations what they are asking, I mean if we tell them we will not pay you any more then $40 per barrel what the f#*k are they going to do? They have to sell it to the U.S. and China to survive. They can't lose either one and survive.
I do agree that the oil companies are screwing us when Exxon Mobil can post billions in profits. If it weren't for the oil companies we would have much more effecient engines that produced comparible power. Just look at energy sources such as gas-o-hol that can be made from corn. And if you get in a pinch you can even drink it. Seriously Americans need to start looking at cleaner fuel sources and pressuring the big three to engineer more effecint motors with equal power. It's hard to believe that NASA can do all of the space missions that they have done, and that we have technology that can transmit information from all around the world and are vehicles still use crude wasteful technologies for moving and stopping.

well acording to my TI 86 1 gallon = 3.785411784 liters just had to make go out a few more decmila places to get it exact i didn't want anyone getting with all these numbers floating around from a gaollon to a liter. Took 53 bucks to fill my truck up last week Friday and i only have a little over 1/4 tank left and gas has gone up a little since then so it might be 54 bucks when I fill it up on Monday .
